Rescue

The chapter opens on Power's memories of an easy life shared with Meowy, hunting animals and reveling in fresh blood, until the Bat Devil seized the cat and demanded a human in exchange. Power had set off toward the city on that errand, questioning why she would bother for so flimsy a reason, then admitting to herself that she simply adores the warmth of blood.

She wakes beside Meowy, both of them cut free from the Bat Devil's guts by Denji. Puzzled, Power asks why he would save her after she had tried to end him. His only reply is a point at her chest and a squeezing motion. Calling the motive ridiculous, she nonetheless agrees to let him grope her since Meowy made it out alive.

Denji's celebration is cut short when a Leech Devil lops off his arm. He asks whether Power can still move; she cannot, so he resolves to take the new Devil on himself, though his transformation stalls for want of blood. The Leech Devil rages over the death of her boyfriend, the Bat Devil, until a closer look convinces her that Denji is adorable. She decides to spare him while promising to slaughter Power and Meowy, and Denji braces for the fight.

Power's backstory with Meowy and her coerced hunt for a human are revealed through flashback. Denji frees both Power and Meowy from the Bat Devil's corpse, and Power grudgingly grants him permission to touch her chest. A Leech Devil, lover of the slain Bat Devil, appears and amputates Denji's arm, setting up the next confrontation while his low blood supply prevents a full transformation.

This nineteen-page chapter sits in Volume 2 inside the Bat Devil arc and is adapted into the anime's fourth episode. Power, Meowy, Denji and the newly introduced Leech Devil appear, with the Bat Devil now reduced to a corpse.
